But also, who are the people buying a sloppy looking tshirt with bad lettering for $99?

At least for some, the answer is "to show they can/conspicuous consumption"
Sure, maybe if it has some pointlessly expensive brand label… but what about a generic looking, obvious low quality item such as in TFA?

Is this just some kind of money laundering engagement?

Can’t believe I had to scroll this far to find the correct answer.

“Anyone who is trying to hawk 99 dollar t-shirts is a scammer by definition.”

How much is the maximum you'd spend on a t-shirt?
